News Corporation Aims to Go Carbon Neutral While Fox News Promotes Climate Change as a Hoax.

Rupert Murdoch quote "Climate change poses clear, catastrophic threats,"
"We may not agree on the extent, but we certainly cant afford the risk
of inaction".
Formerly skeptical about global warming, Murdoch was reportedly converted by a presentation from Al Gore. :D
Murdoch's logic was that higher energy costs are inevitable, given coming carbon regulations and dwindling supplies of conventional fuels such as oil.
So why not get ahead of the game.

More quotes by Rubert Murdoch. "Whatever (going carbon neutral) costs will be minimal compared to our overall revenues," "AND WE WILL GET THAT BACK MANY TIMES OVER."

Murdoch's son James who is expected to inherit his business empire is green-leaning.

Regulation Wont Kill the Golden Egg says Mark Mobius, Executive Chariman of Templeton Asset Management.

He recommended that a small tax be imposed on derivatives.

"In the case of financial derivatives, i think there should be a small tax-- a small fee put on financial derivatives, maybe 10 basis points."

I woke up around 3 o'clock this morning and realized that I had been dreaming about a forum where people actually talked about Sirius XM stock. In the dream I was in a place called King Of All Trades or something like that. It was a wonderful dream about a wonderful company that I own a whole lot of stock in.

Then, when my day started, I logged onto Sirius Buzz, my favorite site about my favorite stock, and went into the Sirius XM Stock Talk forum. Only to find that I had been redirected to the Politics thread. What a nightmare!

I'm guessing that anyone seeking information on investing in SIRI stock ought to look for another website. Because this one has completely degenerated to a new low that doesn't even involve our investments in Sirius XM

i have asked John before to move all this over to the Political section. So far he refuses to engage over there (saying he has won all arguments :D and doesnt need to post there) Ironically he somehow feels that he has not won those same exact arguments that he is now posting about over here in the stock thread. LMFAO. I apologize to all and make a committment to stop posting anything other than stock related info here. It would be nice if he will make a similar committment.

P.S. i welcome siriusly long and just sirius to do the same and engage (or not) in the political thread as opposed to this one.

Thanks Lloyd!

We have some big weeks ahead of us as we await the quarterly report. The new sub numbers appear to be very positive. I think there is a LOT of money to be made during this period.
I think we will have some swings of 10 cents a week, which makes for excellent opportunities to make some coin.
I have been in this for over 4 years. I started buying when SIRI was over 4 bucks a share. I've managed to average down to under 85 cents a share in my holding long position. And I've made over 20K just swing trading in and out over the last 3 months. It's tough, very tough, to find stocks that you can do this with.
Sirius Buzz has been an excellent source of investing information exchange for me.
We all know that I love political discussions. But, this forum isn't for that.
Now, let's make some money!

"The 2001-2009 Presidency of George W. Bush ends in less that a week, so its appropriate to evaluate the Bush years and his economic legacy. As the Clinton administration ended , the
United States entered the new century and decade with the strongest, most-resilient, most-adaptable, and technologically advanced economy on the face of the earth, according to an
analysis by the US Central Intelligence Agency."

THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION BEGAN IN 2001 WITH THE PASSAGE OF A $1.35 TRILION TAX CUT--
A CUT MANY ECONOMISTS AND ANALYSTS FELT WAS NOT NECESSAY, GIVEN THAT THE U.S. ECONOMY WAS ALREADY RECOVERING FROM THE MINI 2001 RECESSION" "The biggest problem with the tax cut was that it was tilted too much toward the rich and upper-income citizens-- Bush's political base--and it almost quaranteed that , over time broad-based demand would remain soft, and probably fall in a few years."

"And the stock market? Even after discounting for the overvalued stock market at the end of the Clinton administration in January 2001, THE STOCK MARKET HAS STIL DECLINED, IN REAL TERMS,
AS PRESIDENT BUSH LEAVES OFFICE IN JANUARY 2009. THAT'S 8 YEARS, NO GAIN IN THE DOW. FURTHER, THE DOW IS CURRENTLY (JAN 2009) TRADING AROUND 8,000 AND MANY ECONOMISTS SAY THE US WILL BE LUCK IF IT ENDS 2009 AT THAT LEVEL."

"There were some economic successes during the "Bush 43" era; trade ties were expanded, exports rost , and inflation remained low/moderate through his 8 years. And as noted, one segment of society (upper-income citizens) saw an increase in wealth." "But those few positives in no way blot-out the Bush Administrations MANY FAilURES: SCANT JOB CREATION, UNEMPLOYMENT HIGH AND RISING, DECLING REAL MEDIAN INCOMES, RECORD BUDGET DEFICITS, RECORD HOME FORECLOSURES, A LARGE TRADE DEFICIT, NO ENERGY POLICY, NO HEALTH CARE POLICY, AND INCREASING POVERTY RATES, AMONG OTHER PROBLEMS."

"BUT ON ECONOMIC POLICY, PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH HAS PERFORMED ABYSMALLY, AND HE WILL MOST LIKELY RANK AS THE UNITED STATES' WORST PRESIDENT ON ECONOMIC POLICY SINCE PRESIDENT HERBERT HOOVER"

Haa yes from the New York Times, Is it any wonder how they forget to mention the average monthly unemployment rate under Bush for his full 2 terms was 5.3 percent. I see they say it was a mini recession however they seem to forget the tech bubble that burst in Feb of 2000 sending the NASDAQ from almost 5,000 to just over 1,000, Ho yes the tech bubble bursting was not the only factor that took out almost EIGHTY PERCENT of the NASDAQ, yes 911 had its hand in that (also somehow forgotten by the New York Times). There by wiping out any of the Clinton buget surplus PROJECTIONS (yes lets also remember that those surpluses they always like to talk about were then PROJECTIONS not actual surpluses.). They were dependant on the markets staying as high as they were and not having terrorist flying planes into the WTC wiping out another 1.5 TRILLION (yes thats Trillion with a "T" then again with age of Obama in office people have gotten to know well the word TRILLION) in our economy. I see they mention that the Bush tax cut bill cost 1.35 Trillion yet they forget to say that cost was over the total 10 years of the plan or even mention the extra huge amounts revenue it generated to the government over that time period which means the bill basically paid for it self.

Just to show how bias the New York Times is they skipped right over Carter and went to Hoover.

Did Bush ever have unemployment at 9%, NO, but Carter was at that point for most of his presidency.

Did Bush ever have inflation in the double digits, NO, but Carter was at 11% when he finally left office.

Did Bush ever have interest rates nearing the twenties, NO, but Carter did, try buying anything on credit (including a house) and paying 17 or 18% for it.

Hummm, enter Obama and take a good look at history and what that will lead us to, I told people he was another Carter and just look at the simularities.

P.S. As a side note 97% of the money lent out under TARP under Bush has been paid back with interest making any money Bush lent out, a profit for the government. Hummm Obama where is the money lent to the car companies. yes they paid us some back (from a escrow account FROM THE TARP MONEY) but where is the other 45 billion they still owe us, THAT YOU LENT THEM

I will tell you what if Havasucker can stop putting his polotics in the stock forum then so will I. I after all am just responding to his misinformation and halftruths. I do not respond to his crap in the political thread because I left there showing him to be the twit he is and after seeing the polls, I know my side has won the debate. I only felt the need to do it here because he brought it here he took a small comment and then turned that into his opening to turn this thread into his new political thread he knows noone gos there anymore so he needed to bring it here.

Thank you John! I'm willing to bet that there are a few other folks here that appreciate it too.
I always love reading your take on the stock and what we should look forward to in the future.

Your welcome but for the record please follow the link (goto post 18 and/or 19):

That was a great thread John. I used the numbers and the discussion in that thread in deciding to add another 25K shares to my position. So far, I'm up more 10% in just two weeks on that move.

Those are the kind of discussions and fact sharing that can help all of us to make some more dollars.

We're looking very good again today indeed!

Everyone is free to go over post 1 through 17 before post 18 there is not one other political statement UNTIL you made one on post 18. I only then showed you hipocritical point of view in post 19. You then took that to go on to other subjects you have misinformed on. We are talking about this thread and not some other thread.

Also you dumb twit that is not politics that is showing that you cant even tell the truth about anything.

Stop it right now you Socialist, Communist, dumbass twit.

Listen you dumb twit we are talking about the here and now. The reason is simple, because after YOUR post #17 it went totally political. It has been you that brings that up, you want me to argue with you but I wont do it on the political thread because you keep going over the same dumb crap I crushed you on. It got to the point inwhich it was useless because everyone already saw it and I was not going to waste anymore time on shit I already crushed you on again and again and again. The only reason I did it here is because I knew it would only be a small amount of time before someone (I figured it would be Charles) would say stop with the political crap and then you would go back to your dungeon. There by I would only have to correct your misinformation and propaganda for a few post at most.

Once again I will correct you it is 1, or I guess you could say 1.25 if you really think it is going to tank .12 in the last 2 hours.
